Thats very useful Dave, i actually didnt know you could get google to skip
the inbox. Thanks
Someone recently asked me how to do the same for Hotmail, so ill copy it
below for those who dont know. Perhaps someone can do the same for outlook,
as i rarely use it.
-------------------
1: Create a new folder by clicking "customise folders" in the left hand pane
from your inbox. Name it "debatewise" or whatever.
2: From your inbox click "options" in the top right hand corner of the
screen which opens a drop-down menu, then click "more options".
3: Select "automatically sort e-mail into folders" (its in the "customize
your mail" heading) and select "New Filter"
4: In the "Step 1" section leave the drop down tabs saying "from address"
and "contains" and type "debatewise" and then in the "Step 2" section select
the Debatewise folder you created earlier and press save.
5: Select "New filter" again and this time change the drop-down menu that
says "from line" and change it to "To or cc lines", leave "contains" and
again type "debatewise", select your folder and click save.
That should pretty much do it, i think. If it doesnt quite cover all the
e-mails you can just add more filters until it does.
